Playing as Nunu & Willump
Tips to maximize your impact
- Roll your snowball from far away
Cast Biggest Snowball Ever! (W) from far away for your ganks: the longer it rolls, the bigger it gets, and the more its damage and knock-up grow.
- Hit with all three snowballs
Hit your target with all three snowballs of Snowball Barrage (E): they're slowed, then at the end of the spell, Willump roots nearby slowed enemies.
- Absolute Zero on locked-down enemies
Cast Absolute Zero (R) on enemies who are already immobilized: the slow grows stronger, and the explosion hurts more the longer you channel.
- Save your bite for the objective
Save Consume (Q) to finish the dragon or Baron with Smite: against a monster, the bite deals true damage and heals you.
Playing against Lillia
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Hug her or back off from her Q
Against Blooming Blows (Q), stick to her or back out of range: only the outer edge of the zone adds true damage.
- Leave the center of her W
Get out of the center of Watch Out! Eep! (W): the zone deals much more damage there than at the edge.
- Dodge her spells, seed included
Dodge her spells, even Swirlseed (E), which rolls to the first enemy: each one marks you for Lilting Lullaby (R), which puts every marked enemy to sleep.
- Save your CC for her
If you have CC, use it on her: with no dash, she relies on the move speed Blooming Blows (Q) gives her for each spell that hits.
